This is a poster submission presented at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Between 1941-1945, 87 ships were lost off North Carolina's coast; two-thirds of these were sunk by German U-boats. This record earned the area the nickname of “Torpedo Junction”. Many of these wrecks have been found; others remain lost. This poster will examine the possibility of relocating one of these missing wrecks, the oil tanker William Rockefeller. When it was sunk, Rockefeller...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Landscapes Above and Below in Southern Contexts (General Sessions)" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1849, the North Carolina legislature appropriated $25,000 to build a series of locks and dams along the Tar River to improve navigation through the shoals of the shallow inland waterway. These developments were intended to increase the transport of cotton, naval stores, and timber to the coast by making...

This project sought to develop a non-invasive means to identify the locations of prehistoric and historic human burials using geophysical and soil chemistry. With field investigations conducted at rockshelters, open air sites, and historic cemeteries, geophysical investigations were very effective in identifying burials and other cultural features at all site types. Chemical analysis of the soil to verify burial locations appears to hold greatest promise in historic burials.

A single soil sample from the Eden House Site (31BR32) on the North Carolina Coastal Plain was examined for pollen and phytoliths. Between the 1670s and 1740s this area was a plantation owned by families of European extraction, probably all English. The soil sample was collected from a root cellar in what was probably a quarter for enslaved African Americans. Evidence for cultivated food crops was sought in the pollen and phytolith records.

This historic context identifies the rural industry property types associated with the Sand Hills region; reviews the features associated with each; considers each property type or class as identified at various Department of Defense installations and reviews the significant studies of each; and reviews their physiographic distribution. The document provides recommendations for the future management, interpretation, and National Historic Preservation Act evaluation of rural industry properties.

This 2007 Desk Guide is a starting point for identifying the proper tribe(s) to contact. Initiating formal, government-to-government consultation would typically follow. The Desk Guide contains basic information on both the military installations and the tribes located in the South and Eastern Regions so that this same information is readily available for the tribal governments and their staff. Tribal staff may need to contact a military installation in a region or state which is part of their...
